"Goodness, you people sure do cause a ruckus." Helona woke up and rubbed her eyes, it was still nighttime sadly and these people were still mucking about, "Keep it down would you? Some people are asleep. It wouldn't hurt to take guard duty, but please, inside voices." She gestured by pretending to seal her lips shut.

"What a wonderful story." Helona clapped in surprise at the sheer magnificence of Marianne's story, she had never heard such a tale before, "You sure do enjoy bears quite a lot." She chuckled slightly and stopped her clapping, finally feeling her eyes grow heavy. "It is getting rather late though... If I do say so myself..." She yawned, "I need rest... I'll see you all in the morrow."
After listening to most of the stories, Helona smiled slightly, they were all rather interesting, but didn't Marianne say she was going to tell one? She glanced at her and nudged Marianne with her elbow, "I do believe you have a story to tell, yes? Do tell."
"I remembered this story, it was one my father had told me. It was called the Juniper Tree, rather popular and some might have even heard of it. 'A woman wishes for a child as red as blood and as white as snow. She knows she is about to die, so she requests that she be buried under a juniper tree that her family has outside, as that is where she wished for the child. After a few months she gives birth to a son and dies a few days later. She is buried underneath the Juniper tree." Helona attempted to collect the pieces of the story, "Her husband grieves for a long time, and gets married again. His second wife gives birth to a daughter, Marjory, but hates the son because he would be the one to inherit all the family's money, and she wishes it to be her daughter. One day, she offers Marjory an apple and she graciously accepts it. Then, she has an evil thought and cruelly offers the boy one. As he reaches in a box to get it, she slams the box's heavy lid on him, beheading him. The mother then takes a bandage and ties his head back to his body, and tells Marjory to ask him for the apple, and if he doesn't give it, to give him a hit on the head. Marjory kindly asks for the apple, and then boxes hits him on the head, resulting in the boy's head falling off. Marjory goes to her mother and tells her in sobs that she killed her brother. Her mother reassures Marjory and they both agree not to tell the father. When the father returns they tell him boy has 'gone to stay with his uncle'. The father is upset that the boy did not say goodbye and tells Marjory that he will be home soon. The stepmother then turns the boy's body into a stew, and in some other versions, black sausages, without anyone knowing apart from her and Marjory.The father eats the stew, suspecting nothing, and declares it delicious..."

She paused for a moment before going on, "In the end, the stepmother died because a bird dropped a stone on her head, and the bird turned back into the boy. The family left and had dinner leaving the stepmother to rot under the stone."
Praise the sun
"I remembered a few tall tales myself, one especially that I think the others might like, it's rather old too. But Marianne can go first if she wishes." Helona chuckled slightly and stared at her shoulder, feeling something slimy wander about on her bare skin, she cringed realizing it was a mere garden snail and flicked it off of her shoulder.
